Sus abogados presentaron una solicitud de prórroga, que fue aprobada por los tribunales estatales. His lawyers filed an application for the extension, which was approved by the State Courts. La fiscalía no se opuso a la prórroga, siempre y cuando Iswaran cumpliera condiciones mejoradas de libertad bajo fianza. The prosecution did not object to the extension, as long as Iswaran met enhanced bail conditions. A su regreso, su caso será transferido al Tribunal Superior debido al gran interés público.
